Hi fgorseth !
Got the same here. (PEX8211 based board in DL380 Gen9)
Problem is, our DL380 got V4 CPU's, so no Bios downgrade is possible (working only with bios >=V2.00)
(Customer a couple of DL390Gen9 with v3 CPU, all working fine, a new one come's with v4 Cpu = our solution is not working)
When we changed the CPU to v3 and downgraded the Bios, all is working fine.
We made a request to the HPE support, and got the answer :
---- schnipp ---
Status: Your case is closed. If you have further inquiries, please contact Hewlett Packard Enterprise GSD Customer Solution Center
Problem Resolution:
- cu has unsupported card that is causing issues
- AHS log to be submitted
- Cu informed that this is a non supported configuration
- Cu advised to test a supported HPE configuration and contact us in case further assistance required

---- schnipp ---
So HPE tells us :
If we have an working system (Bios 1.50) and have to upgrade the Bios (maybe HPE support tell us to do this in case of a support case) , it's not HPE fault, the system is now broken.
That's no sign of a compentent answer. (Becaue the issue was fixed in V1.40 and V1.50 but it seems its forgotten in V2.xx).
Maybe someone at HPE can help us out with fix for DL380Gen9 with V4 Cpu's (I'm not sure, how long v3 CPU's can be ordered ??)
Regards
